Introduction: XBOX Controler Via Usb

Step 1: Be Prepared

Also If you are using the XBOX 1 controler you need to download XBCD from www.allenthinks.com in the download section.

Step 2: Download the XBCD Software

If you are Using Xbox 1 controler you need to download the XBCD (custom) from allenthinks.com in the download section.

If and only if you are using the XBOX 360 controler.

Step 3: Wireing It Up

Now you need to splice the adapter THE ADAPTER not the xbox cable. (some problems)

And it is the same wiring diagram as a normal usb cable.

You don't need to worry about the yellow cable just cut it off.

Step 4: Installing

Now its time to install the software FIRST.

This part is alittle rag-tag.(windows on diffrent os"XP,2000,95")

Once you have the software installed plug up the controler and when windows reconizes it chose manual install and then select choose myself(or something like that) and select the controler and it will say that its not digitaly signed but who cares.

Step 5: Checking Your Connections

In order to connections and if you installed it correct open up the XBCD Utility and select gamepad1 (or similar) then open up microsofts game controlers and check.

Nice Mod iv finished modding my xbox controller with an added upgrade Iv modded the end of this old Xbox controller to a male usb for use with any laptop or pc iv also gutted out a memory port down to the pins and soldered and hot glued in a female usb replacement into the empty port then i added a micro sd card reader with a 2gb sd card which iv added 153 arcade games onto into the usb port then i configured all the Xbox controller buttons and finally gave it a nice blue stray job.

Without splicing any wires of the xbox adapter or cord, can't you just solder the usb connections into the part that connects to the xbox? i can see five connections inside there (i'm guessing that the larger one is yellow?) wouldnt that be better..?

I tried doing this to an aftermarket wired 360 controller because i lost the breakaway cable, but it only powers on for a quick second then dies. do you think wire gauge would have anything to do with this?

i tried wiring a USB end to my aftermarket 360 wired controller (because i lost the end) but the lights only flash for a second and then it wont power up, do you think the wires on the USB end could be to thin?

I did this both with a mad catz wireless controller and a normal wired controller and they both don't work with vista. the madcats one work perfectly with XP no drivers had to be installed or any special software the normal corded on well you all know is there any way to move drivers from one OS to the other on a usb driver or some thing? very nice how to also.
